Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who was selected by U.S. President-elect Donald Trump as the head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), was surprised by the news that the "request to lift the emergency martial law" was passed by 190 votes in the South Korean National Assembly.
On the 4th, Musk responded by sharing a post on social networking service X (X) that the South Korean parliament unanimously passed a resolution to lift martial law with 190 registered members, saying, "Wow."
Regarding the situation in Korea, another post added, "This is really shocking."
In this regard, U.S. President-elect Donald Trump has yet to give a special response.
Earlier, 190 lawmakers gathered at the plenary session of the National Assembly in the middle of the night, all voted in favor of the lifting of martial law.
Article 77 of the Constitution stipulates that "when the National Assembly requests the lifting of martial law with the approval of a majority of the registered members, the President shall lift it."
Prior to this, President Yoon Suk Yeol, who declared an emergency martial law in an emergency public statement on the night of the 3rd, decided to lift the emergency martial law declaration in about six hours.
